evildoers

It is a custom in City C that the whole family should be reunited on New Year's Eve.

On the day when I was young, it was snowing heavily outside. The whole morning, Bao Bao and Xia Chen were cleaning the house, and Lu Zhixu huddled in the audio-visual room upstairs to have a secret exchange. The "dog head army division" was very angry.

Aunt Li was sent away by Xia Chen - Li Zhurong placed her in Lu's house, not only to show that she would not obstruct Xia Chen and Lu Zhixu's affairs, but also as an eyeliner.

After all, the power of the Xia family has changed, and the Li family, as family friends, will also be greatly affected.

Lu Zhixu never asked Xia Chen what happened in Beijing.

He didn't want to know.

These matters have nothing to do with him. As Xia Zhifei said, they are family members, and family members will not ask about success or failure, but will only support them unconditionally.

The main dish for dinner is hot pot. The soup base of boiled live fish is delicious but not too light. The mutton is cut as thin as shavings and rolled up on the plate. Beef, cloud legs, enoki mushrooms, baby vegetables, and fish balls and Shrimp balls, lettuce slices, quail eggs and kelp shreds.Large and small dishes were placed all over the table, and Xia Chen even cooked a few side dishes, but the big and small ones were all waiting to eat the hot pot and ignored other dishes.

Not long after sitting down, Xia Chen was opening a drink when the phone on the side rang, the baby obediently helped Xia Chen bring the phone over, Xia Chen walked out while talking on the phone.Go to the door and stand there to change your shoes.

"Why are you going?" Lu Zhixu stood up and asked.

"Go pick someone up, they've already arrived at the door, teacher, come too." Xia Chen put on his overcoat, and took Lu Zhixu's down jacket from the hanger along the way.

Lu Zhixu vaguely guessed who that person was.

The baby stayed at home alone, Xia Chen was afraid that he would touch things randomly, so he also carried him out, Lu Zhixu covered the hot pot, ran to the entrance to change his shoes, the baby was in Xia Chen's arms, holding his father's scarf.

The family of three went out without driving, Xia Chen was holding an umbrella, and Lu Zhixu was holding an umbrella with the baby in his arms, but did not open it.

It was snowing heavily outside, and the cold wind like a knife blew on Lu Zhixu's face. Xia Chen put his arms around Lu Zhixu, and whispered in his ear: "It's okay, it's my grandpa. I've already made it clear to him, He won't be angry."

Lu Zhixu hummed, expressing that he was not afraid of anyone getting angry at all, but he was actually a little nervous.

Xia Chen's grandfather, he had only heard about it, was a descendant of the founding general, a general who made great achievements when he resisted the U.S. and aided Korea, and was brave and good at fighting...

But what he saw was a skinny old man in a wheelchair with a guard squad.

When Xia Chen came back this time, he actually disobeyed his grandfather's order.

Because of the things he brought back, the Xia family was full of turmoil. The old man sent his most capable non-commissioned officers to investigate, and found out the ins and outs of the whole matter. The truth was just as Xia Chen said, shocking.

Mr. Xia was already in poor health, but he fell ill immediately after being stimulated like this, and kept repeating, "What face do I have to see Xiangting?"

Xiangting is the name of Xia Chen's grandfather, Mr. Li. When Li Biwei married into Xia's family, Mr. Li objected very much. It was Mr. Xia who patted his chest and promised that if Xia Zhixiang dared to let Li Biwei down, he would break his leg.The Xia family will never wrong Li Biwei...

However, within ten years of his marriage, Li Biwei was murdered by his elder son and two brothers.

A tiger's poison does not eat its sons, no matter how much Mr. Xia killed people on the battlefield, he would never allow his sons to pay for their lives by killing them.

His youngest son and youngest daughter-in-law had already been killed, and it was impossible for him to let the other three sons be buried with him.

This is the value of being the head of the family. No matter how much he loves Xia Zhixiang, he must also consider Xia's family. His eldest son is over 50, and there are two granddaughters. Does he still have to pay for his life?

He can only make some "compensation" to Xia Chen...

This is why Xia Chen has not given the evidence to Mr. Xia all these years, because it is useless.

The one who died was his son, and so was the one who was alive. Have you ever seen a father who killed his elder son because his elder son killed his younger son?

Xia Chen knew this, so he never thought of relying on Mr. Xia to take revenge. He had been secretly accumulating strength, and when Mr. Xia died, he would have no scruples.After all, although those uncles were not the "pustules" in Li Zhurong's mouth, they were no different from Xia Chen, who knew how to suffer from hardships at the age of seven.

However, the kidnapping of Bao Bao and Li Xiu disrupted his plan.

He had to use his own strength, and he just showed one of the strengths he could use—that was Xia Zhifei, those uncles and brothers were already facing the enemy, and they couldn't sleep or eat.

In order to prevent them from taking a back bite in front of Mr. Xia, and also to hold the heaviest weight in Mr. Xia's heart, Xia Chen presented those evidences.

Although he didn't expect to use his grandfather's power to deal with those uncles, he couldn't let all of Mr. Xia's power fall into their hands.

Sure enough, after the truth came to light, although Mr. Xia's balance was tilted towards Xia Chen, he did not do anything other than calling those uncles over and scolding him severely, whipping him a few times, and making himself worse by the way. express.

The expected reaction was not a disappointment.

But after all, he is a close relative, after all, he is a blood-related grandfather, after all, he is the hero he relied on when he was a child. Seeing the inaction of Mr. Xia, Xia Chen didn't feel bad at all.

He would run back to City C, partly to avoid the dangers in Beijing, and partly to make Mr. Xia feel guilty and ashamed.

Deep down in his heart, there was still a trace of unwillingness.

Everyone said that his father, Xia Zhixiang, was Mr. Xia's darling and the devil king of the world. In fact, even the most beloved son, in the face of the family's interests, was nothing more than a dead man.

None of this matters anymore.

In any case, Mr. Xia came to look for him.

His plan has been on track step by step, revenge is only a matter of time.

This is enough.

Although Li Zhurong was cruel and extreme, he was right in one sentence.

In this world, nothing can protect you and the one you love, nothing can bring you justice and revenge.Family can't, friendship can't either.Only when you have enough strength yourself can you protect yourself and those you love.Only when you have power yourself, can you liquidate the hatred one by one.Only the weak will cry bitterly while hugging the dead body of their loved ones, while the strong will make their enemies cry bitterly.

Xia Chen is not Li Zhurong, he is neither extreme nor cruel.People don't offend him, and he doesn't offend others.When he is quiet, he can sit in the garden and read a book all afternoon.But he doesn't mind getting his hands dirty if someone hurts his family.

It's not that he can't learn to be tolerant, but that the boy who gritted his teeth in front of his parents' mourning hall 12 years ago, he can't learn to be tolerant.

The Lu family is not too big, and there is no place to house those guards, Xia Chen asked them to find a place to live nearby, leaving the guard squad leader named Wu Jiang to take care of the old man.

Mr. Xia is getting old, and he has been stimulated a lot recently. For a while, he found out that his grandson has been living hard for so many years, and for a while, he found out that several of his sons ganged up to kill his youngest son, so he became An old man in his dying years.He couldn't eat hot pot either, so he could only drink porridge. Xia Chen stewed minced meat porridge for him in the kitchen. Lu Zhixu sat in the living room feeling a bit awkward, so he went to the dining room.The remaining baby, ignorant and fearless, ran into the living room, hid behind a clump of dripping water Guanyin, and peeped at him thinking it was very concealed.

Although Mr. Xia was old, his eyesight was not bad. When he spotted the baby, he waved to him, "Little baby, come here."

Although Mr. Xia is also a second-generation official, he didn't learn Mandarin well. He spoke a northern accent, which the baby could barely understand, so he obediently ran over.

The old man touched the baby's head with the hand that did not receive the infusion, and asked, "Little baby, how old are you?"

"I'll be five years old after the new year." The baby answered him tenderly.

The voice reminded the old man of some distant past events, and his eyes widened.

"Are you my brother's grandfather?" Bao Bao said while clutching his sleeve, "I heard my brother and father say that his grandpa is here."

The old man gave the baby a bitter look and nodded.

"Are you from Beijing?"

"I live in Beijing." The old man answered him patiently, took his hand and asked, "Little baby, will you live in Beijing with me?"

"What about my dad?"

"He's going too. Xia Chen will live in Beijing in the future, you all will live with him in Beijing, okay?"

Maybe I am really old.The old man thought this way, in the past, he would never have recognized this little baby and his father.

The tender and soft hand like a steamed bun was held in the withered palm of the old man. Originally, there was no blood relationship between the old and the young.But because of Xia Chen, they unexpectedly met together...

The baby was stumped by the old man's proposal, lowered his head and fell into serious thinking.He was wearing a milky white one-piece pajamas with spots, and there were two soft yellow horns on the hat on the back. He had a round head, black and soft hair, and a small swirl on the top of his head.I don't know why, but the baby always has a warm aura that makes people feel that it is a child who grew up in love.

The old man looked at the baby in a daze.

He once had such a child.

When he was young, he spent most of his time outside. The first few sons had no feelings for him. There was only one youngest son who was born by watching. When Zhixiang was born, he was also small and soft, and he grew into He became a mischievous kid, and later, he studied, fell in love, got married, and had children.He died suddenly in an air crash. He was also angry and resentful, but after all, it was a natural disaster and man-made disaster, so he had to let it go.

Last month, when Xia Chen appeared in front of him, he thought he had seen his dead young son again, with the same eyebrows, the same body...

However, what this grandson brought him was devastating news.

It has been a month, and I have been angry and hesitated, and it is time to make a decision.
